-Make 19 circles.
Using the photos as a guide, attach 19 nail heads to one circle creating two circles (one inside the other) and one stud in the center.  This will be the “buckle” of the belt.  For the remaining circles attach nine nail heads around the circle leaving about a 2” space for layering.
Layer and sew ea circle over the next being sure to cover the blank space with the next circle.  Place belt around your waist and decide where to place the snap or hook and eye and sew in place.
